O.o Basic Blademaster Guide o.O

STATS: Starts are the distrabution of points between Strength (STR) / Dexterity (DEX) / Vitality (VIT) / Magic (MAG).

Note:: Blademasters DO NOT use magic in there builds! (Just clearing that up now.)

Axe / Hammer Build:
Every two Levels: 6 STR / 3 DEX / 1 VIT (Capping VIT at 50 - Then adding 6 STR / 4 DEX)

Heavy armor Build: (suggested for any weapon other then Axe / Hammer)
Every two Levels: 5 STR / 4 DEX / 1 VIT (Capping VIT at 50 - Then adding 5 STR / 5 DEX)
Note:: Spear users MUST follow this build to meet there STR requirements to use a Spear Class Weapon.

Light Armor "Single Blade": (not recommended)
Every two Levels: 4 STR / 5 DEX / 1 VIT (Capping VIT at 50 - Then adding 10 DEX)
Note:: This Blademaster is a DEX build!

Light Armor Fist: (huge debate here weather Light Armor or Heavy Armor Fist users are superior.)
Every two Levels: 3 STR / 6 DEX / 1 VIT (Capping VIT at 50 - Then adding 10 DEX)

SKILLS: Skills are your Special Attacks. Each different type of Blademaster may require different skills to be sucessful, but here are the basics when choosing a skill for your Blademaster.

Keep your Buffs MAXED at all times:

Aura of the Golden Bell
Alter Marrow Magical
Alter Marrow Physical
Diamond Sutra
Weapon Mastery (depending on what weapon you choose)

Regardless of your weapon type, Keep Aeolian Blade MAXED!!

MAX all of your chosen weapon tree skills!

All other skills are debatable based on your play style and the type of BM you are making. (ie. Strength Based / Dexterity Based)

Demon and Sage skills are based on if you are going PvP or PvE at late game.

Demon is usually used for PvP builds.
Sage is usually used for PvE builds.
